»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp are delighted to announce the launch of Real Time REGOs, our new Time-Matched Renewable Energy Guarantee of Origin (REGO) product. This pioneering platform provided by Granular Energy will enable our business customers to track their energy consumption against renewable generation with greater accuracy and credibility.Ìý
As organisations seek more transparent and verifiable ways to demonstrate their sustainability commitments, Real Time REGOs offer an advanced solution by matching energy consumption with renewable generation at a more granular level. This ensures that businesses can accurately report their use of green energy, reinforcing their environmental credentials with confidence.Ìý
Founder of Ecotricity, Dale Vince, said: “For 30 years, Ecotricity has been at the forefront of ensuring our customers know where their energy comes from. So, I’m really pleased with this new innovation and it’s got one of those Ronseal names.ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý
“Real Time REGOs can tell you where and when your green energy comes from, whether it’s a solar project in Lincolnshire or an offshore wind project in the North Sea. This means our partners and customers can report their use of green energy credentials with confidence - something increasingly important in a world where greenwashing is on the rise. It’s a great enhancement for all businesses that are serious about greening their operations for real.â€Ì�
Granular Energy, a leader in energy traceability solutions, is providing the technology and expertise behind this initiative. Their cutting-edge platform enables precise time-based energy tracking, for renewable energy verification.Ìý
Eleonore Lazat, Commercial Director at Granular Energy added: “»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp are thrilled to work with Ecotricity, a pioneer in the UK electricity supply landscape and a business with values that inspire us. By launching the Real Time REGOs product, Ecotricity enables energy buyers around the country to get trustworthy, traceable insights on their green electricity sourcing. This will help highlight further grid decarbonisation needs.â€Ì�
Why is Real Time REGOs such an important development?Ìý
They ensure that clean energy is sourced in real-time, aligning consumption with actual renewable generation. Real Time REGOs simplifiy the management of time-based certificates, reducing complexity, automating allocations, and enhancing reporting.Ìý
As Britain’s greenest energy company, we have spent the last three decades reinvesting our profits into green energy infrastructure for our customers. Real Time REGOs will ensure that our business customers can now match their energy use to these and the other renewable assets we source energy from 24 hours a day, year-round - redefining green electricity procurement and ensuring greater transparency. This latest innovation will also mean that we can continue to support our customers on their net zero journey by helping them attain a higher standard with the UK Green Building Council (UKGBC).Ìý
How does Real Time REGOs work?Ìý
Our Hourly Matched REGOs solution utilises customers' own bundled REGOs within their Sleeved Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), along with Ecotricity’s own PPAs, and unbundled REGOs with Hourly/Half-Hourly metering data to align consumption with generation on an hourly basis. The level of matching is determined based on available generation data, which is reported on monthly. Official REGO numbers are backfilled when available, ensuring compliance no later than July of the REGO Compliance Reporting Year.Ìý
When will Real Time REGOs be available to Ecotricity customers?Ìý
»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp’ve been offering the Real Time REGOs products to our business customers from April 2025, with first Hourly product reports and visuals available from May 2025. The first annual product reports will be available from the end of Compliance Period 24, which runs from June 2025 until April 2026.Ìý
